Isn't that freedom of speech?

There isn't FOS.  From what I was told anti - NFL and anti-Goodell signs were also confiscated in Cincinnati at the Bengals-Ravens game. Is there true FOS on message boards like this one?  Thoughts and words are censored everywhere. Now, the degree to which that is a good or bad thing is might be a good topic for another thread. But the short answer is "no," there isn't free speech. Not really. Not without consequences, at least.
Apples to oranges. Rupp Arena is a publicly owned facility and the University of Kentucky is a public university. I may be mistaken, but I don't see any reason that fans attending games at Rupp Arena have to check their First Amendment rights at the front door.
